The handsome pirate

Hello! This is my project. I'm still doing it, so any input is appreciated!

This is the initial sketch. I tried a thing or two in terms of creating a character but I liked this one right from the beginning and wanted to continue on it.

I refined the drawing, added some background and tried to equilibrate the composition.

Thinking in terms of silhouettes and visual weight.

More refinement and a little study on anatomy to fit things.

Final sketch for the characters. I'm going to add the background later. I got some tips about the head of the pirate and his arm being too close to the shark, so I'm changing things a bit to see if it gets better.
